Will Malta develop a battery energy storage system?
The government has received 16 offers for the development of Malta’s first large-scale utility battery energy storage systems, Minister for the Environment, Energy and Public Cleanliness Miriam Dalli told The Malta Independent.
How does the Bess project affect PV generation in Malta?
The BESS project is also intended to mitigate weather-related challenges posed by renewable energy sources, which are reliant on climatic conditions and can therefore lead to significant dips in generation during moments of sudden cloud coverage severely affecting the PV generation in Malta.
What is Malta's Energy & Climate Strategy?
This project is in alignment with Malta’s energy and climate strategies, as it emphasises the integration of energy emanating from renewable sources and the mitigation of energy curtailment, thus enhancing energy security and reducing carbon emissions.
Are Bess systems the key to modernizing Malta's distribution network?
She emphasized that initiatives like these are vital steps toward large-scale renewable projects, such as offshore wind. Dr. Ing. Joseph Vassallo, Divisional Manager at ICM, highlighted that the BESS systems are key to modernizing Malta’s distribution network.
Why is Bess important for Malta?
The introduction of BESS is crucial for Malta as it allows for the storage of surplus energy generated by photovoltaic panels during low demand periods. This stored energy can then be utilized during peak demand times, thereby stabilizing the electrical grid.
Will Delimara Power Station host a battery energy storage system?
Delimara power station will host a battery energy storage system (BESS) that will store power harvested from solar and wind farms, to be released during peak demand periods. The project is proposed by the government company Interconnect Malta for a 4,900sq.m site at the Delimara plant.
